Whats your Tax cut?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/thenation/20080910/cm_thenation/4358663

It saddens me to know that so many people seem to think that the Republican version of the tax plan is better, when it's clearly not. Especially when McCain continues to air his lying ads about Obama's tax plan.

The fact is, the Republican party is only for the very rich. And so, they pander to the rich and do their best to raise taxes on the middle and poor class, while lowering it on the rich.
Obama's plan would lower the tax on the poor and middle, and raise it on the rich. That's 95% of American households.

And yet, McCains part continues to lie and tries to make it seem like Obama would raise them! Damn twats.

Uganda seeking miniskirt ban

Am I the only one that finds this down right funny?

"What's wrong with a miniskirt? You can cause an accident because some of our people are weak mentally," he said.


Well that explains it! Their men don't know how to control themselves so much that they end up crashing their cars.
They have a severe lack of control of themselves it seems.

However, I'd go walking down the sidewalks wearing a very short mini skirt, just in protest. But I don't live there, so I can't. Pity.

Kicked out of house and vote

It's nice to know I'm not the only one that thinks: What else is new?

Ahh Republicans, nothing from them surprises me anymore.

Just in case anyone does not already know, you do NOT need to own a home to vote. You can actually be homeless, and still be able to vote. As long as you are a legal resident of America, you can Vote.

Stupid cunts.

Born Again

Chances are, you've heard that term before. Either from a family member, a friend, or the media.

I got to watch a film a few days ago about a woman who was raised in an evangelical upbringing, and how she was able to leave Christianity and finally be able to be true to herself, instead of living a lie.

Here's the film for your viewing pleasure.

It got me thinking about how many gay and lesbian kids and teens are kicked out of their homes by their parents. How they are pressured to change their sexual attraction, harassed, and tormented. They hear the most horrible things while at school, bullied, threatened. And people seem to think this is okay. When someone wants to stop the bullying, the religious cry "Gay Agenda!!" which makes me think, how is wanting to protect the children, pushing a "gay" agenda?

This is the reason why so many of them commit suicide. Homosexuality in itself, does not lead to Suicide. It's parents that treat their gay child like shit, and than kick them out if they don't change. I'd feel pretty depressed to if my parents ever tried that on me. I got lucky, many are not.
I don't see how that is supposed to be "Christian love." I find it to be vile and disgusting. No loving parent would kick their own child out of the house because of the kids sexual attraction. Nor would that loving parent allow their child to be bullied.
